A practical approach to shelving and mounting
Shelves and wall-mounted items need suitable anchors and a sound mounting surface. Plan the height, load and concealed services before drilling.
Projects to discuss
- Shelves and storage
- Curtain rods and blinds
- Wall-mounted accessories
Before you get in touch
Send the item dimensions and weight, wall type and intended location. Keep manufacturer hardware and instructions.
Project questions
Can you mount into any wall?
The wall and intended load determine the fastening method. Masonry, plaster and drywall each need an appropriate approach.
What does a project cost?
Pricing depends on the condition, materials, access and agreed scope. Share photos and details for a project-specific discussion; there is no automatic online quote.
PLAN THE DETAILS
Design around real objects
Measure the items you want to store and identify their weight. Plan wall fixing, access and spacing before deciding how many shelves to use. Keep outlets, switches and doors accessible.
Decorating & styling: style with breathing room
Alternate useful storage with a few display objects. Repeat a color in two or three places, vary object heights and leave some empty space so each shelf is easy to use.
